I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 502 - 371 Duke Lis Kain_2

King Morton sat on his throne, smiling faintly, seemingly pleased with the ennoblement ceremony taking place today.

With the king seated, the ennoblement ceremony was about to officially begin.

As the court musicians transitioned their tune, the light music was replaced by a solemn symphony, causing the expressions of all the nobles to become serious.

Duke Hade, dressed in a black suit, stood at a diagonal in front of the king, unraveling a sheepskin scroll branded with the Royal Family crest of Feis, and spoke with a deep but magnetic voice:

"Today, on behalf of the generous King Morton, I preside over this ennoblement ceremony."

"In the past year, we have successfully thwarted the evil conspiracies of Boditch Kingdom, achieving victory in the war against Boditch, a splendid victory for all of our Kingdom."

"During this war, whether nobles, officers, or ordinary soldiers, all have been vital cornerstones of the Feis Kingdom, an indispensable part."

"The Kingdom will remember everyone's efforts and achievements, and likewise, they will receive the rewards they deserve."

"The first..."

Duke Hade paused before continuing:

"Court Marquis Lis Kain!"

As Duke Hade's voice fell, the music suddenly became more uplifting.

At this moment, a young man adorned in black and gold finery entered the palace from outside under the guidance of a servant, stepping on the solemn red and gold carpet.

His handsome face wore a slight smile, and his short black hair appeared neat and tidy. His well-tailored, smooth-lined clothes further accentuated his straight posture—walking with composure and elegance, exuding a sense of determination and confidence.

The nobles present were impressed; his demeanor screamed of nobility among nobles!

And in Mo Yun's live stream, there was an explosion of activity.

"This bro, I admit he's got nine points of my handsomeness!"

"Lis boss, I want to have your monkey babies!"

"Mom, I suddenly don't want to try hard anymore!"

"Aren't you a guy, brother from the floor above? I remember your account is male, right?"

"I guess I have no choice but to eat soft rice!"

Mo Yun couldn't afford to reply to the comments in the live stream at the moment; she was busy drooling over Lis.

Damn, why wasn't it Lis who gave me the special training?

Lis remained calm, not minding the gazes of those around him.

To tell the truth, he was almost tortured to death; before dawn had broken, he was pulled out of bed by the maid and Risa, meticulously groomed for two to three hours.

Upon arriving at the Royal Palace, he even had to wait under the arrangement of the attendant, time that would have been better spent on arcane experiments.

However, in light of King Morton's generosity, Lis had endured.

But he was faring much better than some of the other soon-to-be ennobled individuals, who were so nervous they could hardly sit still.

Lis, on the other hand, ate and drank as he wished; the Royal Palace attendants uttered not a word, but served Lis attentively.

Arriving before the stone steps of the throne, Lis knelt on one knee, awaiting King Morton's ennoblement.

King Morton slowly rose from his throne, without the aid of Duke Hade, moving towards Lis with a slow but firm step.

Taking an ancient crimson Longsword from the hands of a Royal Palace guard, he gently touched it to Lis's left shoulder and said in a solemn and authoritative voice:

"Today, I, as the Ruler of the Feis Kingdom, upholding the glory and wisdom of our ancestors, in the name of the Holy, conduct this ennoblement ceremony.

At this solemn moment, I hereby proclaim Lis Kain a Duke, and bestow upon you the territory of the Luou Peninsula.

This title is not only a recognition of past achievements but also represents expectations of future loyalty and courage.

Lis Kain, with your wisdom, courage, and loyalty, you have brought prosperity and stability to the Kingdom.

Your contributions will be forever imprinted in the history of the Kingdom, becoming our mutual pride and glory.

Now, in the name of the king, I confer upon you this title, along with its accompanying honors and responsibilities. May you continue to serve the Kingdom in days to come, guard our lands and people, and perpetuate our beliefs and glory.

I wish you, in your new title, to demonstrate even greater excellence, bringing a more glorious tomorrow to the Kingdom.

May your glory be with the Kingdom, forever."

Feeling the weight upon his shoulder, Lis said in a deep voice:

"I am profoundly honored by your generosity and mercy,

I pledge to always remember my identity and mission, to serve as your sword, your shield, becoming the strongest protector of the Feis Kingdom!

May your reign be long and splendid, and the future of the kingdom brighter and more prosperous!"

King Morton had a smile on his face, and after putting away the Longsword, he personally helped Lis rise, showing his intimacy and trust in Lis before all the assembled nobles.

Is it over?

I feel a bit unsatisfied!

As Lis pondered, a familiar sound rang in his ear.

Ding~

That's better, that's what I'm talking about!

Lis moved to stand among the nobles, watching King Morton ennoble others.

After briefly responding to the nobles' congratulations, Lis stepped aside and called up the system panel.
